"Sir Knight," said the prim Rose
"You are bruising my petals!"
"Well, your thorns, my dear
Are ruining my ardour...oops - my armour!"

GM, this is good! It reminds me of the fellow on "This Old House" today making a protective cover to keep the rose bushes safe from snow clumbs falling from the roof's eves. I don't know why it does??
